Today’s Top 5

An "All Star" team

Chuck would be proud to know we still wear them. Possibly not happy that Nike owns them though. I certainly had no clue that the balls were laced like that. I guess once you get the "feel" of it, you adapt to the shape, and don't dribble on the laces?

Wrong name....

I guess the term "Geek Squad" hadn't be coined yet.

the fans couldn't look forward to a lot of dunking.

The Magnificent Seven

They only needed seven men on the team because the game was much slower then. A Jump Ball after each basket and and almost no physical contact with the opposing players.
